What tropes that people seem to hate, but you enjoy?

love triangles

I don't even like that the term is "love triangle". It's usually a V.

love them triangles

South Park.

South Park is a trope?

Based on a secret from yesterday, plotlines where a main character is tormented in some way by a villain (either a villain of the week or a recurring villain or a main villain) and then fights back and wins. Even when that storyline involves rape or attempted rape of a female character.

This for me, too. But it has to be written well, and not shoehorned in or thrown in for simple shock value.

I unapologetically love ABO and kid fic.

Same :)

I really enjoy ABO, but I am oddly picky about which ships/canons I'll read it for, because there are some universes where for whatever reason ABO fic never clicks for me.

Seconding ABO, though I have recently discovered that the Sherlock fandom spoiled the hell out of me with its ABO fic. The ABO I've read in other fandoms since has not, on average, been nearly as good. Then again, I also haven't been in any fandoms nearly as big, so that's part of it.

Also, yes, I unapologetically love ABO and think it's hot as fuuuck. But then also sometimes it squicks me out incredibly hard. It's kind of a mixed bag, lol.

Me too.

Angst, dubcon, hurt /comfort.

H/C is like the most popular trope there is

Hurt/Comfort is my number one tagged.

Yes to all three of these.

Hurt/comfort with lots of hurt and then lots of comfort is my favorite thing. Or just hurt or just comfort.

I like bodice-ripper style non-con - the whole 'I don't want it but I secretly do' thing that only works in fiction. Unfortunately, if it trips over some invisible line in my head between 'non-con' and 'rape', I stop enjoying it :/

insta-love.

don't get me wrong i also want the actual relationship building after that point too, but my inner gooey romantic loves seeing two characters near-instantly connect with one another when they first meet and the absolutely adorable 'omg' faces they always have. i eat it up.

Period Typical/Inernalized Homophobia.
Realistic consequences for actions.
& IC writing apparently.

Time travel and fix-it fics that change lots of things that happened in canon.

AUs where the characters have completely different jobs even when their jobs are the interesting thing in canon.

Whump and hurt/comfort fics that have strong characters just having a bad day.

Ridiculous backstory AUs. Make me believe a character is a child of the Addams family or a reformed criminal mastermind or circus runaway or a mermaid who can change forms.

Strong, somewhat comedic characters getting hardcore whumped, especially comedic villains. The characters I'm interested in tend to be the ones doing the comforting rather than the ones getting whumped, or in there case of villains, they're the whumpers rather than the whumpees.

There's something about seeing a strong, comedic character in a whumpy situation that is really shocking and alien, and I like the idea of other characters trying to reconcile the idea of this super strong, confident, energetic character being completely broken and humiliated.

Even better if the whumpee just has never had to deal with trauma before, and doesn't understand what their brain is doing. Maybe they even try to keep up their old persona, but it doesn't seem quite right. There's more to it, but I barely understand it myself. I can only say that I don't see much of it.
